What the list doesn’t show is the selectivity issue. Some people might have chosen ‘history’ or ‘philosophy’ because their family could afford them to choose such majors. So, it’d be interesting to see how many of those majoring in humanities actually came from the family of say Top 20%.

I think it would be interesting to see how many of these people are working outside their college degree. I bet many of these people are running businesses that have little or nothing to do with their college degree, especially the art & history majors.
